nodegit doesn't build nor install on node version 10

[trieloff]

Homebrew's latest node formula is for Node 10.8, but according to nodegit/nodegit#1532 only Node 10.3 works.

current nodegit (v0.22.2) doesn't build nor install on node version 10.

see nodegit/nodegit#1490

workaround for the time being: use node version 8.

I downgraded to node 8, but this might be a reason to consider using https://github.com/es-git/es-git as a fallback.

as a workaround, you can use the binary distribution of hlx which is agnostic to the current node environment (see adobe/helix-cli#127).

hlx_install.sh

fixed by using @adobe/nodegit built on adobe/nodegit, a nodegit fork with PR nodegit/nodegit#1519 applied.

[stefan-guggisberg]

once node 10 is supported in the official nodegit project i'll revert to using the official nodegit npm package.

[stefan-guggisberg]

reopening, since long build times made us revert to using official nodegit/nodegit v0.22.2, see #32

[stefan-guggisberg]

the latest nodegit release is a major improvement, e.g.:

• node 10 support
• doesn't compile openssl

however, there's now an issue with node 8: nodegit/nodegit#1575

we'll have to wait until said issue gets fixed before we can update the nodegitdependency to 0.23.?.
